Unitized Transaxle Installation, Continued:
14. Remove the blocks from under the engine and roll the powertrain into position under the vehicle. Lift the
front of the powertrain and place the snubber into the snubber bracket in the vehicle frame (Figure 16-45,
Page 16-18).
15. Position the powertrain, using the floor jack, to align the leaf springs in the front spring mounts and install
the grade eight bolts and locknuts and tighten to 15 ft-lb (20.3 N·m) (Figure 16-46, Page 16-19). See fol-
lowing CAUTION.
CAUTION
• Use only grade eight bolts for the front leaf spring supports.
16. Adjust the powertrain height, using the floor jack, to align the leaf springs for mounting in the shackles
and install the mounting bolts and locknuts and tighten to 15 ft-lb (20.3 N·m) (Figure 16-47, Page 16-19).
17. Raise the vehicle with the floor jack and remove the jack stands. Gently lower the vehicle and finish tight-
ening the lug nuts, using a crisscross pattern, to 55 ft-lb (74.6 N·m).
18. Position shocks in the shock mounts and install cushions, mounting washers and nuts and tighten until
cushions expand to be the same diameter as the mounting washers (Figure 16-49, Page 16-20).
19. Connect the park brake cables. See Park Brake Cable Installation, Section 6, Page 6-34.
20. Use a 3/8-inch flare nut wrench to connect the brake hoses to the left and right rear brake clusters and
bleed the air from the brake lines. See Bleeding the Hydraulic Brake System, Section 6, Page 6-31.
21. Check the brake system to ensure that there are no leaks and that proper brake operation has been
restored. See following WARNING.

WARNING
• The brakes must be bled after the correct reinstallation of the brake components. Failure to
bleed the brakes could result in decreased braking performance due to air being trapped in
the hydraulic system. See Bleeding the Hydraulic Brake System, Section 6, Page 6-31.
